Electrical Wiring of the Oscillating Brain
نویسنده
چکیده
In this issue of Neuron, two laboratories (Deans et al. and Hormuzdi et al.) find that cortical gamma oscillation in vitro is impaired in the Cx36 knockout mouse. What are the implications?

Coincidence detection enhances appropriate wiring of the nervous system.
U nderstanding how the spectacular complexity of connections among the neurons in the brain is established during embryonic development often is referred to as ‘‘the wiring problem.’’ Wiring assembly is viewed largely as a two-stage operation, involving axon pathfinding to reach the target and target selection that enables formation of appropriate synaptic connections (1, 2). The former entails...
متن کاملEffect of the Ethanolic Extract of Catha edulis Leaves on the Electrical Activity of Some Brain Centers of Male Rabbits
Catha edulis is an evergreen tree with psychotropic effects. The present work was conducted to evaluate the possible effects of the ethanolic extracts of Catha edulis leaves (ECE) on the electrical activity of 4 areas in the brain of male rabbits. Forty male rabbits weighting 2200-2500 g were divided into 4 groups. The electrical activity of motor, somato–sensory, occipital, and auditory ...
متن کاملEffect of oscillating electrical field stimulation on motor function recovery and myelin regeneration after spinal cord injury in rats
[Purpose] The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of oscillating electrical field stimulation on motor function recovery and myelin regeneration in rats with spinal cord injury. [Subjects and Methods] A rat model of spinal cord injury was constructed by using the Allen weight-drop method. These rats were randomly divided into normal, spinal cord injury, and spinal cord injury + oscilla...
متن کاملApplications of Electrical Impedance Tomography in Neurology
Introduction: Electrical impedance tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive technique utilized in various medical applications, including brain imaging and other neurological diseases. Recognizing the physiological and anatomical characteristics of organs based on their electrical properties is one of the main applications of EIT, as each variety of tissue structure has its own electrical characteris...
متن کاملTutorial Review: Simulation of Oscillating Chemical Reactions Using Microsoft Excel Macros
Oscillating reactions are one of the most interesting topics in chemistry and analytical chemistry. Fluctuations in concentrations of one the reacting species (usually a reaction intermediate) create an oscillating chemical reaction. In oscillating systems, the reaction is far from thermodynamic equilibrium. In these systems, at least one autocatalytic step is required. Developing an instinctiv...
